The State Department operates a secure online travel registration website to record your foreign trip and residence information that the Department of State can use to communicate with you and assist you in case of an emergency.

The site also provides you with up-to-date travel information customized to your unique travel agenda and itinerary. The data you provide is secured behind Department of State firewalls, accessed only by cleared personnel in Embassies, Consulates, and the Department of State, and releasable only under the provisions of the Privacy Act.

The travel registration service for American citizens allows you to register and update your contact information at any time, making it easier for you to keep your information current.

We invite you to register yourself and your family and get acquainted with travel registration.

U.S. citizens around the world who travel or reside abroad can access this site at https://travelregistration.state.gov/
